"Iron Man 2" Set Hints at Story

Production designer J Michael Riva spoke to NPR about the work that he has to do on the set of the upcoming "Iron Man" sequel. He said that he received a list of sets and plot points and the first item listed read: "Tony, in the Iron Man armor, pukes in a toilet."

"I design a toilet," said Riva. "My big job for the day. After that I can go home. My kids ask me, 'What'd you do today, Dad?' I designed a toilet!"

It was long rumored that Tony Stark's drinking problem would play a big role in the second installment and according to this plot point, it seems that the rumor may just turn out to be true.

just because he's puking in a toilet, does that automatically mean he's been drinking? He could have the flu. Maybe he was poisoned? Maybe he has an eating disorder? Ever think of that, Oh wise WP writer?
